PEOPLE are being urged to find out if they qualify for extra cash under the new Working Families Tax Credit.
MP Mike Hall says more families will benefit under the new rules which came in on October 5.
"For the first time, the Working Families Tax Credit will guarantee take-home pay of £200 a week or £10,000 a year for any family with a full time worker," said Mr Hall, who represents Northwich.
"No family with earnings of less than £235 a week (£12,000 a year) will pay income tax.
"I urge all of my constituents who think they may be eligible to ring 0800 597 5976 to find out more."
